The Year of Highland Culture 2007

Last year, 2006, was the International year of the Dog. And to celebrate, Christmas Island knew which DOG to choose for one of their Souvenir Cover, limited edition postcards.

If you are reading this on deerhounds.blogspot.com it won’t require assistance from that greatest of Scottish created sleuths, ‘SherlockHolmes’ to aid you in the quest for an answer.

Yes Deerhounds.

(Check out the Links within the Sherlock Holmes titles, if you wish to investigate the SherlockHolmes history or obtain a little general information or even read all of Conan Doyles’ ‘Sherlock Holmes’ published works. To make it more fun, you may have to Sleuth around this posting yourself for a wealth of Sherlockana. You should find at least six related weblinks).

Meanwhile, enjoy the reproduction of the aforementioned Deerhound postcard above.

Onto this year, and here we are, one half of the way through Highland 2007. A’ bhliadhna a chomharraicheas Alba cultar na Gaidhealtachd.
